Long term computer programmer, making my own library. American based. Far left politically. Politics centered around promoting use of paper ballots. Follows news about environmental collapse, political corruption in my country, human rights, science and tech.

  • Probably, not sure.

    But you are combining your right to free speech with propagating propaganda. So it’s hard to find daylight between them.

    If it’s any consolation I think you are a natural rallying point for the zionists here, you have natural talent to being a focal point on the debate, bringing out the worst in many.

  • I think this was the comment that pushed me to actually contribute to lemmy code. Thanks

  • My perception is you are trying to talk people out of donating to maintain lemmy, while using it yourself?

    What does this even have to do with piracy ???

  • Your information, the data itself, goes through their code to reach most people on lemmy.

  • There is piracy and then there is talking others out of donating

  • Not all problems can be solved using one method

  • Why don’t you a pull request and fix it yourself ? If you have the ability to recognize and know what to fix, and if you care, do it!

    I know I’m too lazy to help them, what is your excuse ?

    I swear, I might just get off the fence and help them myself on unrelated issues, it’s making me that unsettled

  • But you use the software they make…

  • Pretty sure it’s an oversight but devs are overworked, really overworked

    There are many more important things to fix before this.

    But an issue will put it in the todo list

  • I think it sometimes can be the case

  • I am a lazy unreliable person. But I find value in what you found and want it fixed.

    If you don’t do it, it probably will not get fixed so fast

  • I think you should also make a GitHub issue too

  • Often a larger problem can be solved by lots of smaller problems being at cross purposes

  • American soft power sabotaged again, institutional memory about how to run the empire lost. I don’t see the downside

  • These comments are an eye opening experience for me; and I’m not sure I like that feature. It seems whatever the good it does, it’s open for endless abuse because at the end of the day, we are all human and petty at times.

  • The true power of the fediverse is that little dictatorships should, in principle, balance out each other

  • I’m clueless about the discussions about this: but my concern is that, over time (years) most user activity will be on a handful of well managed instances. Smaller instances will come and go.

  • Seems the working fediverse needs server teams that are not too big or small.

    I feel gloomy thinking this will be a bottleneck for diversity, expansion and growth on lemmy.

  • I normally hate on world news, in fact I have blocked it for quite a while out of disgust.

    But this is a correct call, they did good here. The source is bad, it’s widely known to be propaganda, and its uncritical spread by USA mainstream media is a seen as a massive failure of journalistic integrity.

    In other words, if the world news mods see this as a bridge too far, then other pro Israeli people should use caution when passing this blindly.

    If one wants to know more about the hostages and what they suffered, read independent Israeli media instead.
